Maksymilian Miklewicz

I am a driven and compassionate Psychology and Criminology graduate with hands-on experience supporting people and understanding what shapes behaviour. Through my studies and public services training, I have developed strong skills in communication, teamwork, and resilience, including completing army-style survival training and studying real-world psychological theories. I’m motivated by helping others, reducing re-offending, and making communities safer. I bring energy, empathy, and a deep understanding of people to every role I take on.
